Every time I begin to stress, worry, over think this thing, everytime; God gently reminds me that it's not mine to worry about. It's His. Don't get me wrong I feel responsible and I am taking a great deal of ownership. But it still isn't mine. I love to think about TC3 as mine, my legacy, my turn to shine. But truth is it's really all God's. God's vision is always more than one can do. If we can do it then it's simply a plan. God gives vision. We do plans. TC3 is God's vision. Not my plan. As in Ezra and Nehemiah it takes way more than one person to implement God's vision. Pulling off vision alone is like trying to play football in the NFL without the rest of the team, coaches or equipment--impossible. Imagine trying to play QB without an O-line. Sacked and broken in two each play. TC3 is the work of God and all the team. Each person is called and gifted to focus on their calling. Ezra read the Word and rebuilt the altar then rebuilt the temple. Zerubbabel led some captives back. Of course Nehemiah rebuilt the walls and the were scores of others involved. All this illustrates that I am not alone. God is the coach calling the plays and orchestrating the vision. Many others are involved in leading their areas and fulfilling the vision of TC3.
Resting in His Purpose...

You are correct! God's vision is bigger than anyone can imagine. Too many people try to box God. If people would read all the Bible, they would see how God interacts differently with people. The message is still the same, but approaches to how to get the message across will differ. Always remember Zech. 4:6.
